Rumors of a Sopranos movie remain just that, but the guitarist that played Silvio Dante in the hit series on HBO is working with Sopranos creator David Chase as the music supervisor for a film about a Rock band in New Jersey in the 1960's.  Scoring a guy like Van Zandt to fill a role he has lived and loved ups the already strong potential for something Chase is behind to have the goods.  Little Steven says the sound he will be looking for the cast members to be able to create will be '...garage rock, like early Stones, Beatles and Kinks.'  As for Van Zandt's band, the guitarist told people attending an event at City Winery in New York's SoHo that he does not expect Bruce Springsteen to hit the road with the E Street Band for another two or three years.  If a Sopranos movie does go into production he said he's up for taking off his bandana and slicking back his hair to play Silvio again.
